Prohibition in Atlanta.

The -4tdnta Constitution and the atlanta
Sunny South have stirring articles on the
triumphs of prohibition in that city. They
state that the majority in favor of closing
the rum-shops, in city of $4,000, was
only 235. The change was, of necessity,
very great. At least one hundred houses
-rum-shops-were to be closed, and nearly
tive hundred m-sellers-turned out
of employment. The city was to lose a rev
enue from the sale of liquor of not less
than $4,000. Millions of trade would be
turned away from the city; business
houses, especially rum-shops, would be left
unrented trade, in all departments, would
be sadly crippled; taxes greatly increased,
and with all this the sale of liquor could
not be prohibited.
Now, after trial of twelve months, it
is found that prohibition can prohibit
Drinking has diminished so per cent; tax
able property has increased 100000; /;
taxes have not increased every branch of
busisness, except rum-selling, has largely
increased, and some FIVE thousand have
been added to the population of the city.
The public schools are better attended.
and the children better clothed and pro-
vided with books; the attendance on Sun
day schools and churches has greatly in
creased, and some two thousand converts
have been added to the churches; and all
this in one year.
They tell US that the criminal docket,
which formerly took the Courts two weeks
to clear up, is now disposed of in two days.
There is nothing left of the chain gang on
the streets except the chains and balls;
the city requires largely decreased police
force to govern it, and Atlanta was never
SO prosperous as now.-Boston Witaess.

MARYsvILLE, August 5th.-The cannery
at Huba City is now in full operation, EN-
ploying 200 hands. A very superior qnality
OF fruit is being packed, some glass jars
being used. The pack of this eannery is
rnexcelled in the State.
About eight native sons will visit Napa
from Marysville and Yuba City on Admis-

The wheat market is fat-no sales and
no excitement. Estimates of the crop of
wheat for Yuba and Suffer vary from Co.
coo to $4,000 tons of which il is believed
about one-quarter or one-third has been
shipped and paid for. Farmers here. so far
as known, lose nothing by the collapse of
the bull movement, save in the decline of
prices. There is large quantity of grain
at the landings on the Feather and Sacra-
mento rivers awaiting shipment.
Concerning the fungus which attacks fruit
and fruit trees about here, Prof H. G.
Klee. State Inspector of Fruit Pests, writes
the Appe@I that he inclines to the opinion
that the sulphides of either potash or soda
will prove a remedy, but must be applied
immediately on appearance of the fungus.
He adds that whale-oil soap and sulpbur

the laws of trade. The effect in the Allan
tic markets, through the change in railroad
and telegraph operations, cannot yet be an
ticipated. Even in San Francisco the
results are hidden, the Board hav-
ing suspended, as well as the pools.
But the losses, 100000 or S7,000,O0
will fall heavily somewhere, and the wheat
held by ring-said to be 5000, 900 bushels
in California, 100000 on the sea and g.
800, 600 in Liyerpool-hangs over the mar
ket, threatening continued depression
abroad and here. The average cost to the
ring is said to be more than the wheat
brings now in New York. Final official
statements show 153, ,SSl .022 bushels as net
exports for the year, but of this quantity
the $500, 600 owned by the California ring
abroad is still as much in the way as if il
had not been shipped. Slow movement
for some time to come seems to be prob
able, which may help the money market
to some extent.

Common Street Car.
Copyright, 1887, BY tie California Associated Pres,
PHILADELPHIA, August 5th.-TSpecial. /
u. Herbert Condict, of San francisco. yes-
terday conducted successful experiments
with electric motors here An electric
motor car was run from the shops of the
Wharton Switch Company, at Twenty
third and Christian streets, through Tween
ty-second, Spruce and Third streets to the
Merchants Exchange at Third and Wal
nut, and back, oyer the tracks of the Spruce
and Pine street line. to Gray's ferry, and
thence to the starting poht. The single
exertion required was to slow down so as
to keep at proper distance from the regu-
lar horse-cars of the line. The car was un-
der perfect control. Condict controlled the
circuit wheel and brake personally. The
vehicle was an old horse-car. The electric
batteries and cells, 81 in number, which
furnished the power. were slowed out of
sight under the ordinary seats of the car.
There were AZ cells on each side, each cell
weighing Il pounds. Before taking the
car ON the street it was run around to test
the track in the shop-yard of the Wharton
switch Company, rounding curve of 43
feet radius and up an incline or grade of
hive feet in 100, or about 255 feet TO the
mile, without any noticeable change in the
speed OF the car, any more than if on a
straight and level track.
